"Sister Zhen'er, don't make fun of me, I'm ...... I was also kept in the dark. ”

Lu Qiling heard Mi Zhen's words, and her face turned red.

This is the expression of the daughter's family when they are shy, after all, Mi Zhen is not wrong at all, she will indeed become sisters with Mi Zhen soon.

This sister is not the same as the current sisterhood.

Instead, they served Liu Zheng's wife together.

Lu Qiling originally liked Liu Zheng, and she was naturally happy with such a result.

It's just that when the daughter's family is brought up, there will always be some embarrassment when she puts it out.

When Lu Qiling returned home yesterday, she was told the news by her mother, and it was precisely because she was shy that she didn't dare to stay in the house, so she ran to Mi Zhen again.

Yan and Lu Bu did not inform Lu Qiling of this matter, but the result of their own discussion.

The reason why she hid it from Lu Qiling was actually because she was worried that she would oppose it after Lu Qiling knew about it.

Mi Zhen saw Lu Qiling's blushing face, and did not continue to make fun of Lu Qiling for a while.

"Okay, okay, I won't make fun of you, my sister is really happy for you, and when you get married, we will be able to move around often." No more running around. ”

Although Lu Qiling has been living in the palace recently.

However, she lives in the palace, after all, just to protect the safety of the harem.

Her home is still outside the palace, and she often goes back to Lu Mansion to live.

But if she marries Liu Zheng, she doesn't have to go back to Lu Mansion.

Lu Qiling and Mi Zhen were happy about this matter, and the people in the entire Jianye City also knew that Liu Zheng was going to marry another concubine during this time.

But after all, Lu Qiling is Lu Bu's daughter, although it is a matter of hastily agreeing to get married, some etiquette is still indispensable, not that you will be able to get married soon.

You have to choose a good day and prepare all kinds of dowry gifts to Lu Bu's house.

Of course, Liu Zheng doesn't have to have a headache for these troublesome things, naturally someone will be busy, and it is Zongzheng who is responsible for this matter.

The time was chosen on the 15th of the next month.

Just when everyone was looking forward to this marriage.

Yuan Xi, who has not had any major movements in the north, finally couldn't hold back at this time.

The brocade guards hurriedly whipped up and heard the movement from the north.

Yuan Xi united with Karasuma, and tens of thousands of troops came from the north to kill, taking advantage of the beginning of spring to rob a wave of grain and grass.

This is also no way, last winter because of the cold weather is not suitable for sending troops, although Yuan Xi also lacked food in his hands, but gritted his teeth and persevered for a while, in the beginning of the spring, his men had no surplus food and the Karasuma people could not explain, so they could only unite them and plunder at all costs.

If he doesn't want to find a way to solve the problem of food and grass.

The Karasuma people would not let him go at all, and they fought with other Karasuma people and killed each other, losing their troops and losing their generals, so it was better to unite together to snatch Liu Zheng's grain and grass.

So after enduring it for a while. In order to be able to prevent a war with the Karasuma people in the next period of time, Yuan Xi took the initiative to show goodwill to the Karasuma people and united these Karasuma people to raise troops to attack Jizhou.

Of course, the reason why Yuan Xi had this idea was also because Liu Zheng sent Xu Huang, Tai Shi Ci and others to withdraw from Jizhou last year.

Yuan Xi knew that the army in Jizhou at this time was empty, and there were only tens of thousands of horses under Yuan Shang's command.

The tens of thousands of people under Yuan Shang were not Yuan Xi's opponents at all.

Yuan Xi, who had fought with Yuan Shang, naturally knew that his purpose was not to eliminate Yuan Shang, but just to go to Jizhou to snatch some grain and grass.

In this way, he could even calmly lead his soldiers and horses to Jizhou before Liu Zheng could react, and then snatch the grain and grass, and then withdraw to Youzhou.

With such a seamless plan, how could Yuan Xi miss it.

That's why he quickly gathered his troops, and then in a short period of time, he reacted quickly, and the army went straight to Jizhou.

When the news came from Jizhou to Yangzhou, I was afraid that Yuan Xidu had already returned with grain and grass.

However, it is obvious that Yuan Xi is a little underestimated Liu Zheng's intelligence ability.

Although Liu Zheng sent his army away, not all of them left, at least Zhang He, Guan Hai, Pei Yuanshao and others, as well as thousands of soldiers and horses, were stationed near Jizhou.

These people are just a nail, just wait for any wind and grass in Youzhou, they can rush to the battlefield first to buy time for Liu Zheng.

The news spread from Jizhou to Qingzhou, and then by ship, day and night, the news was soon able to reach the hands of Liu Zheng in Yangzhou.

In just three or four days, Liu Zheng already knew what happened in Youzhou, as soon as Yuan Xi sent troops, the soldiers and horses had not even reached Jizhou, and Liu Zheng's side had already begun to react.

He quickly summoned his soldiers and horses, and directly asked Xu Huang and Tai Shici and others to come over to discuss the matter.

"Generals, you must already know about the affairs of Youzhou."

Above the court, Liu Zheng looked at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty.

After the news came back from Youzhou, Liu Zheng did not hide it, so he immediately went to call these officials, and at the same time told them why he was in such a hurry to summon them this time.

On the way here, they already knew what had happened.

The first person to stand up and speak was naturally Xu Huang.

After all, among the generals, Xu Huang's status is extremely high.

"Your Majesty, the last general said before that Yuan Xi will definitely not be so honest, this time he invaded Jizhou, most likely for the purpose of grain and grass. Presumably, it won't attack for a long time, it should be after a lot of looting, and then it will leave on its own. ”

"However, even if this is the case, we can't let him snatch the food from us so easily."

Xu Huang and the others were not surprised by Yuan Xi and the others' attack on Jizhou, and they had expected it even a long time ago.

And a few months ago, the layout had already begun, not only allowing Pei Yuanshao and Guan Hai to camp their troops and horses on the border of Qingzhou and Jizhou.

He had said hello to Yuan Shang before, and the walls were cleared, and the populations of those villages near the north were concentrated in various cities.

There were no villages in the wilderness, and the cavalry that went south to plunder could not make any oil or water.

The only place to get food is to siege the city.

But as cavalry, once they attack the city, the losses will be great.

They will not attack the city unless they have to.

Moreover, once the city is attacked, it is not just a day or two of effort.

In case, if the defenders on the city tower resist stubbornly, they may not be able to fight for a few days, or even half a year.
